Out of the whole test match these are the best batting conditions we saw.

Ball isnt swinging, seaming, or reversing.

England finally put up some resistance in home conditions after being totally dominated for the first two days.

Nothing demoralizing about that, as long as we win this match.

Bro, it is a great win for the team no doubt.

Tjough on a personal level I am feeling a bit devastated. After the lead touched 180 and Cook got out cheaply I was sensing an innings win. When Amir took two quick wickets and then fall of 6th wicket shortly after I was over the moon. I was pumped up, ready to embrace a dominating win.

Now I am lying on my bed, felling devasted and have to question my psychic abilities.

We might go on to win the match, however the fact we couldn't hold on to the innings win is nothing short of a moral defeat.

Don't get ahead of yourself mate, there is still a long way to go for Pakistan to win this, this might not be as easy as most people think if England manages to score around 150, and with the way these two are going, looks like they're gonna pull it off.

Also, poor decision by Pakistan to change the ball, as that was suicide. they reported the ball for shape. It was 60+ overs old, not 20 overs, and work had been done on it for reverse. Now this ball is just doing nothing.

I believe PAK still is in driving seat, though looking at field setting, doesn't seem PAK team itself is confident enough. Last 3/4 overs, I thought it's time for batsmen to panic for the end ...... ENG should lose one more before end.

I have never experienced such a dominant overseas performance by Pakistan. If we lose this, I will be traumatized. Serious.

Pakistani fans are honestly the most impatient and disloyal viewers of cricket out there. Guys, relax. Take a breather! Have some patience. This is Test match cricket, it gives multiple opportunities for the team to come back. Our fitness levels are completely fine, Amir, Hasan and even Faheem are giving everything in their bowling. Amir is still bowling around the 90 MPH mark, that says a lot about his commitment and fitness levels.

It is high time we as fans understand that the opposition are not a bunch of mugs who have cheated their way through the system to make the national team. Every country as professional structure where only the best of best player make the cut. And when the likes of Shadab Khan - with all due respect - are making half centuries, we should understand that world class batsmen like Buttler will not go down without a fight. Buttler is not only a terrific batsman, but we should consider that he is playing this Test primarily as a specialist batsman and the vital reason for his positioning is the very scenario case in point; to avoid a collapse and to bat with the tail.

Just because we have done well thus far does not mean the English team is a bunch of nobodies.
